[HSP] This kind of stress

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Sometimes I encounter it in my daily life

A little stress.

When I try to verbalize it again

Honestly, "Is that...?"

While there are some parts that I pull

But still, what I care about is

It really bothers me, doesn't it 🥹

Among many sources of stress.

what i particularly dislike

Eyes, sounds, and a sense of distance.

None of them are on the move or on duty, including commuting

With the standard negative element

every time i'm in a situation like this

it makes me feel really bad

Recently, the cause of my stress

Maybe it's because I've become able to grasp it firmly

The degree of consumption has decreased a little, or rather

Before the stress gauge is full

To be able to deal with it in a state of spare

I feel like it's becoming more and more.

when i first heard about the concept of hsp

"Understanding your own nature" is very important, isn't it...!

This property of overreacting to all elements,

no matter how hard i try, i can't become insensitive

It's a cruel place, but

Make a habit of facing your senses properly on a regular basis

as much as possible, by choosing to act in line with the feelings

Make every day a little calm and positive

I want to change it.

... Read moreHSP(Highly Sensitive Person)の特性を持つ人は、周囲の些細な刺激に強く反応しやすいため、日常生活の中で感じるストレスも一般の人より大きくなりがちです。私自身も、電車での謎の方向に立たれることや、ノロノロ歩く人に足を止められること、そして耳障りな音に対して強いストレスを感じる経験が何度もあります。 こうした状況では、自分の感覚を押さえつけるのではなく、「なぜそれが気になるのか」を意識的に理解することが大切です。例えば、音の問題については、イヤホンで好きな音楽や自然音を流すことで、不快な音を軽減できます。また、視線が気になる場合は、視線を合わせないよう意識的に視線をズラす練習を繰り返すことで、精神的な負担が軽くなります。 距離感の問題では、自分が快適だと感じるパーソナルスペースを守ることが重要です。混雑した場所では難しいですが、可能な限り離れる工夫や、自分がリラックスできる空間作りを心がけましょう。例えば、通勤時に少し早く家を出て、人が少ない時間帯を狙うなども有効です。 私が特に効果を感じているのは、自分のストレスの原因を言語化し、書き出すことです。自分の感情を客観視することで、問題に対して冷静に向き合うことができ、不必要に消耗しなくなりました。日記やメモアプリにその日のストレスと対応策を記録するのもおすすめです。 HSPであることをネガティブに捉えるのではなく、自分の感受性を理解し活かすことで、より穏やかで充実した毎日を送れます。繊細だからこそ気づける小さな幸せを大切にしながら、自分に合ったストレスマネジメントを見つけてみてください。

This Is What High Stress Actually Looks Like
You don’t have to be having a breakdown to be overwhelmed. Sometimes it looks like: feeling tired all the time, overthinking everything, getting irritated easily, or feeling “off” for no clear reason. That’s not random… that’s your nervous system staying in survival mode for too long.
